The DIY PiLiDAR scanner project uses a Raspberry Pi for LiDAR mapping. LiDAR scans the surroundings by firing lasers to create a 3D model. Raspberry Pi 4, camera, motors, and LiDAR kit are needed for ...

Although there are plenty of methods for effectively imaging a 3D space, LIDAR is widely regarded as one of the most effective methods. These systems use a rapid succession of laser pulses over a wide ...

When I first heard about LiDAR and the 3D scanning apps available for the iPhone, I was skeptical that it was anything more than a gimmick. But I couldn't have been more wrong. With no prior ...

Lidar sensors add depth scanning for better photos and AR, but in future we could see mixed-reality headsets and more. I started with CNET reviewing laptops in 2009. Now I explore wearable tech, VR/AR ...

"The future of optical technology lies in our ability to harness the power of light with unparalleled precision and efficiency," says Arshey Patadia, a leading figure in photonics whose work is ...

The FARO Focus3D X 330 HDR is, a high-speed 3D scanner with extra-long range. It can scan objects up to 330 meters away even in direct sunlight, delivering realistic and true-to-detail scan results.

House-scanning app Canvas works with lidar on the iPhone 12 Pro, but also scans without it. The difference is accuracy. I started with CNET reviewing laptops in 2009. Now I explore wearable tech, ...

LiDAR uses lasers to measure the distance, shape, and orientation of objects around you, making it great for both mapping and ...
